The Buttercreek Boys will perform for the Music in the Parks outdoor summer concert series at 7p.m. on tonight at the Irrigon Marina Park.
The Buttercreek Boys feature Lou Reeves, guitar; Wynn Weston, guitar; Curt Clauton, stand-up bass; Tom Watkins, violin-fiddle; Rusty Roe, saxophone; and Jim Simpson, banjo and harmonica. In addition, several of the musicians share in the vocals. They also invite the crowd to sing along, if the music moves them. The Buttercreek Boys can be seen performing regularly in the Hermiston community.
